You Need A Budget (YNAB) is a budgeting service designed to help users manage their finances by applying a zero-based budgeting method, where every dollar of income is assigned a specific job. It enables businesses to create detailed monthly budgets for expenses, savings, and debt repayment, providing clear visual tracking of budget progress and overspending alerts. YNAB supports proactive financial planning by allowing users to plan budgets months in advance and generate insightful reports on spending habits, net worth, and income versus expenses. The platform facilitates collaboration by allowing multiple users per account, making it suitable for small business teams or family budgets. Its hands-on approach encourages disciplined money management, helping businesses avoid living paycheck-to-paycheck and improve savings over time.
